The animal welfare group posted a video of the rescue
on their Facebook page on Tuesday, and the video promptly went
viral, earning more than 2,300 shares.

The SPCA took advantage of the teaching moment to
advise pet owners who live in high-rise apartments to secure doors
and windows so as to prevent domestic animals from wandering onto
ledges or falling from heights.

Two police officers
were also waiting on the ground with an open blanket, the SPCA
added in its Facebook post.The dramatic, and rather
dizzying, minute-long video shows an SPCA rescue officer leaning
out of the window and using a leash affixed to a pole to grab hold
of the trapped kitten.

It wrote in its caption: "Cats and kittens are curious
animals and they risk falling out of an open window by simple acts
such as chasing a bird that was flying past."

The SPCA said that it receives about two calls a week
over such incidents.

"As most housing in Singapore are high rise apartments,
cases of cats stuck on ledges are unfortunately quite common," said
the SPCA's executive director, Dr Jaipal Singh Gill.
